EDGE Capabilities, Technology, and Applications

Overview Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution (EDGE) is a powerful enhancement to the radio technology used by General Packet Radio Service (GPRS). EDGE dramatically improves data throughput rates and network capacity, while providing full backward compatibility for devices and applications. This paper begins with a discussion of the capabilities delivered by the AT&T Wireless EDGE network. It then discusses how EDGE technology works and how it smoothly fits into the evolution to 3G cellular networks. Finally, it thoroughly discusses how to develop applications that use EDGE to its full advantage.
